In conducting those operations, GBRA staff also work closely with elected officials, developers and other constituents to determine their current and future needs and to see how GBRA can help address those needs. The purpose of our efforts is to provide exceptional service for their benefit. We are able to do this by ensuring that GBRA has highly skilled employees who receive relevant training year round. This also includes state licensed operators for the water and wastewater treatment facilities that we own and Ithose that we operate in partnership with customers in our basin. Today, GBRA continues to nurture long-standing relationships with its current customers while building new relationships with new partners. Furthering existing partnerships and addressing a need for a geographic area that lacks certain utilities, GBRA is securing a Certificate of Convenience and Necessity (CCN) to provide wastewater services to an unincorporated area between New Braunfels and Seguin. GBRA will work in partnership with New Braunfels Utilities and the city of Seguin to provide wholesale wastewater treatment to wastewater that is collected from the new developments that are occurring in this high growth area. GBRA is stepping up to build these relationships because the area is growing and circumstances demand it.

  • Stormwater Management Program 2013-2018 Appendix A
    Appendix A 2012 Texas Integrated Report - Texas 303(d) List (Category 5) 2012 Texas Integrated Report - Texas 303(d) List (Category 5) As required under Sections 303(d) and 304(a) of the federal Clean Water Act, this list identifies the water bodies in or bordering Texas for which effluent limitations are not stringent enough to implement water quality standards, and for which the associated pollutants are suitable for measurement by maximum daily load. In addition, the TCEQ also develops a schedule identifying Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) that will be initiated in the next two years for priority impaired waters. Issuance of permits to discharge into 303(d)-listed water bodies is described in the TCEQ regulatory guidance document Procedures to Implement the Texas Surface Water Quality Standards (January 2003, RG-194). Impairments are limited to the geographic area described by the Assessment Unit and identified with a six or seven-digit AU_ID. A TMDL for each impaired parameter will be developed to allocate pollutant loads from contributing sources that affect the parameter of concern in each Assessment Unit. The TMDL will be identified and counted using a six or seven-digit AU_ID. Water Quality permits that are issued before a TMDL is approved will not increase pollutant loading that would contribute to the impairment identified for the Assessment Unit. Explanation of Column Headings SegID and Name: The unique identifier (SegID), segment name, and location of the water body. The SegID may be one of two types of numbers. The first type is a classified segment number (4 digits, e.g., 0218), as defined in Appendix A of the Texas Surface Water Quality Standards (TSWQS).

  • Distributional Surveys of Freshwater Bivalves in Texas: Progress Report for 1997
    DISTRIBUTIONAL SURVEYS OF FRESHWATER BIVALVES IN TEXAS: PROGRESS REPORT FOR 1997 by Robert G. Howells MANAGEMENT DATA SERIES No. 147 1998 Texas Parks and Wildlife Depar1ment Inland Fisheries Division 4200 Smith School Road Austin, Texas 78744 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Many biologists and technicians with Texas Parks and Wildlife Department's Inland Fisheries Research and Management offices assisted with SW"Veys and collectons of freshwater mussels. Thanks also go to Pam Balcer (Kerrville, Texas) and Sue Martin (San Angelo; Texas) who assised extensively with collection of specimens and Jesse Todd (Dallas, Texas), Dr. Charles Mather (University of Arts and Science, Chickasha, Oklahoma) and J.A.M. Bergmann (Boerne, Texas) who provided specimens and field data. ABSTRACT During 1997, over 1,500 unionid specimens were docwnented from 87 locations (I 06 sample sites) statewide in Texas where specimens were either directly surveyed by the Heart of the Hills Research Station (HOH) staff or were sent to HOH by volunteers. Living specimens or recently-dead shells were found at 59% of the locations, 14% yielded only Jong-dead or subfossil shells, 24% produced no unionids or their remains, and 3% could not be accessed due to private lands or other local site problems which precluded sampling. Jn conjunction with previous field-survey work J 992-1996, unionids appear completely or almost completely extirpated from the Pedernales, Blanco, San Marcos, Llano, Medina, upper Guadalupe, upper Sulphur, areas of the San Jacinto, and much of the San Saba rivers. Sections of other river systems and many tributaries have also experienced major unionid population losses in recent years.
